With Halloween only a few weeks away, we are excited for all the costume parties coming our way. The costumes get better and better each year. The Booth is on-site to capture all the fun, laughs, and Halloween fear!
What will you surprise us with?
Absolutely Brilliant.
The entire Booth team has a background in professional photography. We had the honor of working with One Medical Group and their amazing team. Originally, our gear was packed with a seamless backdrop but once the silver freight elevator caught the eyes of our team, there was a change of plans. Our team was able to make the adjustments needed and create a custom look using the surroundings, pretty cool right?
The Health Benefits of Photo Booths
According to researchers in Berlin, Germany there are health benefits of using a photo booth. A study found that taking pictures with your friends helps rejuvenate minds and makes people happy.

Christmas In August? You bet.
Last night, we had the pleasure of joining Convene for their Christmas in August event.

An Impressive Camera For A 9 Year Mission.
NASA’s New Horizons probe finally reached Pluto and its dwarf moon, Charon. After traveling 9 years and 3.6 billion miles, New Horizons took hundreds of images on Tuesday morning. With three cameras on board, the most impressive is "Ralph." A camera equipped with a 75mm lens at f/8.7, capable of capturing visible light and some infrared light. As New Horizons traveled away from the sun, temperatures drop causing materials to shrink. Lisa Hardaway, an engineer at Ball Aerospace in Colorado knew "Ralph" would have to be built almost entirely of one type of material.
“We actually built the mirrors and the chassis out of aluminum so that as they shrink, they would shrink together, to maintain the same focal length. We could do a reasonable test on Earth and still expect the same quality image,” Hardaway says.
Even the camera’s mirrors were made out of aluminum. To turn dull aluminum into mirrors, Ball sharpened it with diamonds. The lens was one of the few pieces of the camera that could be safely made out of glass.
A huge mission. An impressive camera. One set of historic photographs.

Steps forward for the LGBT Community
President Barack Obama proclaims June 2015 as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month. We are proud to work with companies such as the Anti-violence Project and The Center for Anti-violence education. One thing is for sure, we are all happy to see this progression and will always be supporters.
We know stop motion. This producer mastered it.
A great article on NPR, Son Lux's "Change Is Everything" music video is some of the best stop motion we have ever seen. This reminded us of the stop motion clips we created for airbnb at the Sundance Film Festival.
The Director, Nathan Johnson and the Producers, The Made Shop took stop motion to a whole new level. Two long weeks, over 4,000 frames, and many sore fingers later. This Masterpiece was created. We cannot wait for our next stop motion booth, does anyone sense a challenge brewing?
Featured in The Knot
We had the honor of being a part of Ilana and Matthew's elegant wedding. Planning a wedding is a lot of work, it's great to see a couple receive acknowledgment. Theknot.com posted an article about the fabulous day and tagged all the vendors, including The Booth! Not only did Ilana and Matthew create memories for a lifetime, but their guests left our booth with 4x6 prints they can cherish for years to come.
BarkBox brings Puppy Fever To Our Photo Booth
Even The booth was wagging their tails this weekend.
Sigurjon and Justin spent the weekend with Barkbox, the doggie product subscription service, turning cute dogs into glamourous superstars!
Our "puparazzi" coverage on the red carpet captured costumes, treats, and of course, the cutest pups in the world. We absolutely loved being part of the 1st Annual Kentucky Derpy, and can't wait to come back next year!
The Booth Spring party 2015
Our first annual spring fiesta was held at the Tortaria in NYC. Our staff proved they know how to create an unforgettable experience, not only on someone else's job, but at our own party! Channeling upcoming Cinco de Mayo festivities, our group enjoyed margaritas, tacos, tortilla chips, margaritas, guacamole, margaritas and, oh, did we mention, margaritas? Leave it to a bunch of photographers to all leave their cameras at home. Thank goodness for iPhone photo technology.
Heidi Klum's Halloween Party
This Halloween, The Booth joined Heidi Klum for her official party at Tao Downtown. It was hard to decide the best costume so we posted a few favorites below.
Keith Haring artwork comes to life!
Photo Booth History
Today's historical post features a mysterious man that was in a photo booth picture for roughly 30 years of his adult life. To date, more than 450 of these pocket-sized images have resurfaced and are in the possession of museums, historians and antique collectors around the world. The images are believed to start in the 1930's and although many have tried, no one has yet to identify this photo booth fanatic.
Happy Halloween from The BOOth!
SNL in The Booth
We love the iconic look of SNL celebrity portraits. So we put a twist on a few similar images from this years TechyTalk Live event.
